Comments:

• The draw used ball set T3 in the Excalibur 3 machine
• The average prize was £ 8.76. One in every 16.7 tickets won a prize (=6.00% of players).
• The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 3 wins totalling £20.
• The number 18 has now, rather appropriately, appeared 18 times as a main number, giving it a clear lead of two in that frequency table.
• At the other end of both the main and winning number frequency tables, even the fourth appearance of the number 34 still left it one adrift from the rest in both tables.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 5th April 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
